The purpose of this document is to describe some hardware specification which is useful to develop a product with HUAWEI LGA module supporting PCM (Pulse- Coded Modulation). This document is intended for HUAWEI customers who are integrators and about to implement their applications by using our module.
The HUAWEI LGA module supports the PCM, which can be used for the module to transmit and receive digital audio data. Linear and μ-law codecs are supported. The HUAWEI LGA module uses the PCM interface as part of the audio front end; it easily allows for an external codec to be used instead of the internal codec. As an example, through the PCM you could connect a HUAWEI LGA module to a Bluetooth device.
The HUAWEI LGA module has one PCM port. Please refer to the Hardware Guide of the module that you are in use to know the PIN number of the PCM ports.

Question
What Linux kernel modules and configs are commonly used for communicating with cellular modules over their USB interface?
Solution
Most cellular modules can be supported in Linux by using som of the in-kernel drivers. The physical data interface to the host Linux system is usually done over USB which enumerates a set of different endpoints/interfaces. A set of serial interfaces for Modem/PPP, AT commands, NMEA location data and chipset debug information are almost always available in all configurations.
In addition some type of network endpoint/interface are also available and exposed. This can vary between manufacturers and chipset vendors and can also commonly be configurable by using USB configuration mode switching or through vendor specific AT commands.
Recommended kernel configurations to enable are listed bellow. Many cellular modules base their Linux support on these modules and drivers. Once included in the kernel build, the USB interfaces will be detected and bound correctly out-of-the-box or after applying source code patches to the driver modules.
Configs for USB serial drivers:
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_WWAN
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_OPTION
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_QUALCOMM
CONFIG_USB_ACM
Configs for Modem/PPP support:
CONFIG_PPP
CONFIG_PPP_BSDCOMP
CONFIG_PPP_DEFLATE
CONFIG_PPP_FILTER
CONFIG_PPP_MPPE
CONFIG_PPP_MULTILINK
CONFIG_PPPOE
CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC
CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY
Configs for USB network drivers:
CONFIG_USB_USBNET
CONFIG_USB_NET_QMI_WWAN
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER
CONFIG_USB_NET_RNDIS_HOST
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM
CONFIG_USB_NET_HUAWEI_CDC_NCM
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM
Please relate to the Techship product specific web pages for vendor specific Linux integration guides.
Below is a selection of kernel commits relating to cellular module support in Linux kernels:
qmi_wwan: Add support for Fibocom NL678 series
qmi_wwan: Added support for Telit LN940 series
qmi_wwan: Added support for Fibocom NL668 series
USB: serial: option: add support for GosunCn ME3630 RNDIS mode

Question
How to activate the data connection for Huawei cellular modules over the USB network interface in Linux?
Solution
The first step is to assure that the Huawei cellular module is properly loaded in the Linux system. Huawei modules are most often automatically detected in recent Linux kernels, this can be verified in different ways by commands bellow:
The lsusb command shows what physical USB devices are detected in the Linux operating system:
lsusb
root@support-up2:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1f1a Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
The lsusb -t command shows the USB endpoints exposed by the detected USB devices and the related drivers loaded for them:
lsusb -t
...
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 0, Class=Communications, Driver=cdc_ether, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 1, Class=CDC Data, Driver=cdc_ether, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 2, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=option, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 3, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=option, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 4, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=option, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 5, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=option, 480M
|__ Port 4: Dev 5, If 6, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=option, 480M
The dmesg lists all the driver loading logs since system boot up:

Enable the USB network interface in Linux host:
ip link set dev usb0 up
The command ifconfig list all network interfaces loaded in the Linux system, the cellular module interface can be named differently depending on the distribution used but generally named usb0, wwan0 etc. initially.
ifconfig usb0
usb0: flags=4163 mtu 1500
inet6 2a02:aa1:1601:d0da:1e:10ff:fe1f:0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0

RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 11 bytes 946 (946.0 B)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
the command ls can list the USB serial interfaces detected:
ls /dev/ttyUSB*
/dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/ttyUSB2 /dev/ttyUSB3 /dev/ttyUSB4
Once this far we can now start communicate with the cellular module over AT commands. There are different applications available in Linux that enables manual communication with serial interfaces:
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB2
socat - /dev/ttyUSB2,crnl
etc.
Try writing to the modem/AT serial interface initially the command "AT" it should return you OK:
AT
OK
Enable input command echo:
ATE1
OK

Once ^NDISSTAT:1,,,"IPV4" or (^NDISSTAT: 1,,,"IPV6" or if IPv6) is returned it indicates that you now have a active data connection to the network operator over either IPv4 or IPv6 or both.
You can then use a DHCP client in your host system to request the IP address from the cellular network:
dhclient -v usb0

You now have a working cellular network data connection in your Linux system.
It can be tested e.g. by using ping over the specific network interface:
ping -4 -I usb0 www.google.com
PING www.google.com (74.125.131.147) from 2.69.217.204 usb0: 56(84) bytes of data.

This is the basic way of bringing up the network interface. Additional checks and probing should be added in the control software or script if the process is to be automated. For scripting e.g. Python or other language can be used to setup the connection.

Question
I want to use the ME909u-521 with LTE radio access technology only.
I use the command AT^SYSCFGEX="03",40000000,2,4,40000000,"","" or similar, but the module won't lock to LTE only.
Why?
Solution
For modules with firmware 12.631.07.00.00 to 12.631.07.01.00
Since voice was included as a feature in this firmware, Huawei have removed the feature to lock to LTE only. The reason is that the majority of the current LTE networks doesn't support VoLTE (voice over LTE). The way the ME909u-521 solves this is by using a technology called Circuit Switched Fallback. This requires the use of the WCDMA or GSM network. Therefore the module won't allow blocking theses technologies.
For modules with firmware 12.636.11.01.00 and forward
The problem with voice still exists, so the module will need to do a Circuit Switched Fallback to handle this. With this firmware, Huawei introduced the command AT^CEUS, which can set the module in either data centric mode (1) or voice centric mode (0). If the module is in data centric mode, there will be no need to use the voice feature. Then the module can be locked to LTE. If you want to use the voice feature of the ME909u-521, you cannot lock to LTE at the moment.
Question
I want to use the diagnostic port on the ME909u-521. Can I do so?
Solution
The diagnostic port was open on the ME909u-521 until the firmware 12.636.11.01.00. If you want to use the diagnostic port you'll need to contact us so we can give you the shell codes to unlock the module. The shell codes are generated by the IMEI number on the module.
The command to open the diagnostic port is the command AT^SHLOCK. Send the AT Command AT^SHLOCK=1, to open the diagnostic port. The port will close when the module is power cycled or restarted.
